West Ham United fell to a frustrating 2-0 defeat at AFC Bournemouth on Saturday, when goals from the Cherries’ front two Callum Wilson and Josh King were enough to put them to the sword.
The Hammers struggled to get going on a soggy South Coast and were punished by the home side’s greater thrust in the attacking third after half time.
Samir Nasri went close with a low drive from the edge of the box in the opening period, while Andy Carroll blazed over when well placed early in the second 45, but it wasn’t to be the Hammers’ day.
